Brief Answer:
Considerations

Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for saying the question.

The complete blood count result that you shared has results which are relatively normal. Your hemoglobin is right at the lower end of normal limits. This is nothing to be very concerned about.

The labs also suggest that you might be mildly dehydrated. I will try to drink more fluids on a regular basis.

Unless you're having some concerns symptoms I do not think you need to have any additional blood work done at this time. Your doctor might check another blood count in about six months.

Again from the results you have sent it does not appear do you have any worry some process going on. Please follow up with your doctor and follow your doctor's advice.

Sincerely,

Dr. Galamaga
